Wrapping paper packaging is gaining momentum in the global fast food packaging market due to its ease of storage and good functional properties to keep food fresh for a long period of time. It is extensively used for fast food packaging at quick service restaurants, full-service restaurants, cafes, and other institutions. Wrapping paper for fast food packaging is generally made of materials such as paper, PP, PE, PVC, EVOH, and biodegradable materials. Paper-based wrapping papers utilize raw materials such as kraft paper and specialty papers such as greaseproof papers, wax-coated papers, and foil papers. These papers are available in a variety of thicknesses ranging from less than 8 microns to more than 20 microns. Primary end uses for fast food wrapping paper are sandwiches, burgers, pizzas, chicken, and other snack foods. The demand for fast food wrapping paper is increasing at a decent growth rate in both developed as well as in developing countries. This is primarily due to the high growth in the on-the-go and the fast food market globally. The global fast food industry generated revenues of more than US$ 250 billion in 2017. Consumers in developed countries such as U.S., Germany, Italy, France, and Norway spend a huge amount of money on fast food products, which, in turn, boosts the demand for food wraps in these countries, during the forecast period. However, the demand for fast food is also expected to increase substantially in developing countries such as India, China, Brazil, etc. in the next ten years.
